Huh, YOU claimed that both coins are equally decentralized, i asked for you to back it up, and you're asking me to define decentralization?




Ahh and there we have it. So following your logic and your definition of decentralization, BTC is as decentralized as BCD (Bitcoin Diamond)? And you expect us to take you seriously? Look i just created jbreher_shitcoin, and in its first second of existence, from a technical perspective, it's already as decetralized as BTC, or so i can claim to sound impressive when trying to offload it on noobs, would you like to buy some?? Way to waste everyone's time here.

Gag me with a maggot.

I guess technically yes I was, but that it's about to get unstable again quite quickly 

Respect, dude. Begrudging (as you can well imagine), but respect nonetheless.

Well, there is that, aye.

Perhaps it is in the nature of a semantic rabbit hole, but your use of the future tense for a past enhancement threw me off track. I thought you were referring to some nebulous future changes.


Well, yes. I get that many think that huge numbers of non-mining fully-validating clients bring security to the system. I just find such notions delusional.

In the end, the entities with the power are the entities with the most to lose - the miners. The thing that keeps the miners from acting nefarious is the threat of users -- measured by economic power, not by a numerical count of trivially sybillable validators -- abandoning their generated chain en masse. Which is the brilliant design left us by satoshi.

And even if non-mining validators _actually_ held any power: Why would we want to artificially constrain the potentially world-changing power of this network to a lowest common denominator of irresponsible neckbeard hobbyists unable to make the proper life choices to enable them to leave mommy's basement? The notion is pure folly.

Dick head deserved an attitude adjustment.

I am so glad that you exercised self-restraint to "only" perform property rather than bodily damage upon the guy, even if such "self-constraint" was because you did not have enough staying power to continue to stalk the poor incompetent, and perhaps corrupt, fella.    

Smithsonian Institution Explains that 'Rationality' & 'Hard Work' are Racist

WO gentlemen,

I've been off-grid for the past week, on a fishing trip way out of nowhere. I've had no internet/phone service during that time. Fuck, I'd hope to come back to some price action, but it still seems we're grindning around 9k. Boring. Dissapointing.

Anyway, back to my fishing trip. It's been been quite a stress-reliver to be honest. No-one can reach you - I can't reach no-one. It kind of remind me of my youth. I guess anyone of you 35+ y.o. can relate. The age before internet and cell phones.

During this time I also recieved a new offer from Fortress, wanting to buy my claim from the MtGox Trustee. Let me quote (I've edited out names and numbers).


What they fail mention is that the Trustee is also holding a shitload of fiat, which is supposed to be fairly shared among all the creditors. My understanding is that your BTC claim is worth 0.18 BTC, 0.18 BCH, plus $440 per BTC claimed.

Let say you had 1 BTC claimed. That means according to https://www.ozcoin.com.au/index.php your claim is worth $2,150. Fortress is offering 14.91% which is (9300 * 0.1491) = $1,394. That means Fortress is paying (1394/2150) = 65% of your claim.

Thank you Fortress, that's a decent offer. But not quite the 90% you are claiming you're offering. Anyway, I've waited 6 years for any pay-out, I guess I can wait a few years more.

It doesn't matter though. My bags are full for the next bull run, bring it on.

Finally some movement yesterday, but let's just say my trading isn't paying the bills at the moment !


I think it can still last a long time but we'll see, look at the EU, it will borrow money to spend it on "stuff" for the first time, certainly not the last.

It doesn't hurt to be prepared, I'm looking at houses with large plots of arable land to make some fruits and vegs, and allow for more production if needed (cereals, poultry, rabbits...). Having useful skills and train for new ones, too.

I can feel some sympathy and even agree with some people that think the current system is unjust, but if they're not doing something about it, or to at least improve their own situation, that sympathy only goes so far. Whining is not a plan.

Holy shoot.  That is either someone who knows something, or one drunk motherfoocker.

Oops I meant the trend line running since 2011. There is support all over the place but if it falls below the trend line, I think its heading toward a long term bear market. The last bear market for US dollar lasted 7 years between 2001-2008.

... something big is in the wind, gold, silver, oil popping and US$ taking a dive.

... if btc can't catch a bid here and break free higher it is well and truly under control.

How so? 10 year support is around 75 (EDIT: corrected from 73-74) and we are at 95 in DXY.
maybe you are talking about 1 year support?

Just remember: "Accepted truth" can make you feel good. "Real truth" can kill you.

The US dollar is about to break 10 year support.

Come on Bitcoin, the time is now!!!!!
